For years now, I’ve been trying different products to eliminate my blackheads that cause me too much discomfort as the years go by. I mean, it’s not really that big of a deal – it’s just annoying at times because I tend to get irritated whenever I see whiteheads / blackheads populating my nose.
I’ve read about iWhite last year and thought that this would be another one of those products I’ve tried before. Then, a friend at my new job told me that she actually tried it and it kinda works for her so that convinced me to try the product myself.
iWhite Nose Pack is made in Korea that uses ingredients like mulberry root extract, panax ginseng root extract, aloe vera leaf extract, vitamins A,C and E and a lot of other ingredients. I bought mine at Watsons for P189 that according to the sales lady would last for like a month which is not so bad. She’s even trying to sell me the iWhite facial wash and moisturizer (?) but I thought of buying the nose pack first since I’m not even sure if it’s going to work. (and I’m using another brand of facial wash and moisturizer)
When I opened it – it kinda smelled like glue (yeah, like the Elmer’s Glue) – and the texture of the cream was also glue-like although iWhite‘s thicker. It’s tolerable though and when I applied it, it feels kinda weird because the smell became stronger obviously because of where I’m applying it.
According to the product’s direction, I have to wait 15 minutes for it to dry before peeling it upwards. Peeling it was just okay – very easy and doesn’t cause any pain at all – unless you are really that sensitive.
The results? I would like to think that it’s one of the better products that I’ve tried in years since I immediately saw some blackheads when I peeled it off -it won’t remove most of your blackheads at once since you gotta do it 2-4 times for best results. I’ve been using it for like a month now but mostly just about twice a week and it was okay I guess. For 189 pesos, it’s doing its job and I’m pretty satisfied with it. I would still go to facial spa’s but I won’t mind buying iWhite again.

That’s a very good review of the product, however I don’t think having a glue-smelling cream will be good for the health. I’d rather have my nose pricked.
Thank you Andre. I agree, the smell maybe a big turn-off for others. At the moment though, I have stopped using the product. Not because it’s ineffective or something but I figured that I’d rather do my monthly appointment with my dermatologist.
Hi paddylastinc. I tried the product and I have actually been converted to be a regular user of it.
There sure is a certain strong scent to it but it’s definitely not glue-like. Flower-ish ung amoy. But the good thing is when I checked the active ingredients of the product, puro plant extracts halos ung formulation. And that explains the smell.
Hi Mikee!
Well, My other sibling tried using it and we’ve the same observation regarding the smell. 🙂 I’m glad that it worked for you though 🙂
Paddylast,
My mum told me NOT to use pore strips. They strip and enlarge your pores and do more harm to your pores than help.
I would like to try lemon/honey though.
